>Description:

The sh(1) manpage doesn't describe "#" comments or contain the
word "comment" for people searching for that.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

The "pdksh" manpage slips in this phrase:

    #, if used at the beginning of a word, introduces a comment --
    everything after the # up to the nearest newline is ignored;

but it should also say something about it not working interactively.
